Your journey to music video Nirvana can be very rewarding but potentially just a little bit lonely. We here at VidZone think that this journey would be better shared with friends and fellow music lovers. What if you could break out and explore other people’s MyZone to discover someone else’s perfect playlist, follow a fellow Rock Lover or RnB Fan or even follow your favourite artists. Well guess what? Now you can, and a whole lot more.
This improved and updated version of VidZone allows you to escape from the boundaries of your own imagination. With our all new ‘social features’ you can explore the whole combined musical knowledge of VidZone’s users and collate everything you like into your new and improved customisable MyZone.
